Egypt will not ask for further credits from the IMF after the current $12 billion loan programme expires in 2019, Egypt&#8217;s Deputy Minister of Finance Mohamed Moeit announced in Cairo, in an interview with Bloomberg Television. \nThe Minister has also affirmed on September 2018 that the Egyptian government has no intention to increase taxes over the next four years. The latter though remains open to maintaining a looser cooperation with the Washington-based lender in order to reassure investors.\nEgypt\u2019s commitment to continue economic reform\nMohamed Moeit affirmed that the Government of Egypt is fully committed to further developing the country\u2019s economy, increasing its attractiveness as a destination for investments and \u201cmaking the Egyptian model of economic reform a good example for other countries\u201d. \nIn this regards, Egypt is planning to contact JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. for inclusion in its Emerging Bond Index (EMBI) over the next year to replenish foreign reserves and encourage inflows from overseas institutional investors into its domestic debt market, taking similar steps such as in Saudi Arabia and four other Gulf countries. \u201cTo be included in the JPMorgan index might take longer, but if we can also finish it by 30 June 2019 it would be fantastic news for us because we think these tools will help us to reduce the cost of borrowing\u201d, Egypt\u2019s Finance Minister said.\n","author":42,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","tags":[5754,5764,5761,5763,5766,5751,5753,5767,5750,5759,5762],"location":[5600],"class_list":["post-28373","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry","tag-business","tag-communities","tag-decision-makers","tag-direct-broadcasting","tag-economic-analysis","tag-economy","tag-entrepriseslife","tag-expert-opinion","tag-news","tag-politics","tag-trending","location-egypt"],"short_url":"","have_related_news":null,"chapo":"No more policies to be imposed in Egypt.
